A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Beerhunter, thanks for straightening out my numbers. Guess we all know the reason I never taught math.

You are right. The four million number is No. 4 rifles. I misspoke.

If we are counting, I have 28 in the Enfield safe. Should we try to get folks to post their numbers just for the fun of it.

**bigduke6** · 01-10-2011 06:38 PM

73 so far....

Mack, you mention Enfield safe, do you stock pile any other milsurp?

Between me 'Ol Dad and me-self ..... 24! Minor issues with 3-4 .... 1914 EY, shouldn't fire that one. 2A1 with too much head space. '40 Ishy where the bolt jumps off the rail. Essentially all 24 are shootable if an emergency necessitated.

I would tell you as a newbie but you probably wouldn't believe me...LOL

**Hawgeye** · 01-11-2011 12:46 AM

23 if you don't count a Khyber Pass Martini 303.

My habit peaked at 211 a few months ago, but since then sanity prevailed and I've thinned out quite a few....
